Answer:

Solutions x= 9 and -9

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2-55=26

x^2=55+26

x^2=81

(take square root of both sides)

x=9

(squaring negatives is the same as squaring the same positive)

x also=-9

Answer:

x= 9 x= -9

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation: x^2-55=26

Move -55 to the other side - x^2=55+26 = X^2 = 81

Solve - x^2=81 - 9^2 = 81 and -9^2=81 (a negative squared becomes a positive)

Arlene buys a phone case and charging cord for 15% off. The original cost of the phone case is $18. Her total discount is $4.20.

mel-nik [20]

Answer: $10

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the price of the phone case is x.

Assume the price of the charging cord is y.

Discounted price for phone case : 15% * x

= 0.15x

Discounted price for charging cord = 0.15y

Expression is therefore:

0.15x + 0.15y = 4.20

0.15 * 18 + 0.15y = 4.20

2.7 + 0.15y = 4.20

0.15y = 4.2 - 2.7

y = 1.5/0.15

y = $10
